To look up an Address Book record:

1. Display the Address list screen.

2. Enter the first letter of the name you want to find.

The list scrolls to the first entry that begins with that letter. If
you write another letter, the list scrolls to the first entry that
starts with those two letters. For example, writing an “s” scrolls
to “Sands,” and writing “sm” scrolls further to “Smith.” If you
sort the list by company name, the Look Up feature scrolls to
the first letter of the company name.

3. Tap the record to view its contents.

Using Find

You can use Find to locate any text that you specify, in any application
that resides on your handheld. Find does not search applications that
reside on an expansion card.

To use Find:

1. Tap the Find icon

.

Tip:

If you select text in an application before you tap Find, the
selected text automatically appears in the Find dialog box.

2. Enter the text that you want to find.

Find is not case-sensitive. For example, searching for the name
“davidson” also finds “Davidson.”

Find locates any words that begin with the text you enter. For
example, searching for “plane” finds “planet,” but not “air-
plane.”

3. Tap OK.
